Devines Hill

This beautifully curved wall can be seen between the buttresses and Hangmans Cave on Devines Hill (1 hr, gentle walk)

Start 500 metres west of the main ferry landing on the northern bank of the Hawkesbury River. Access is past a locked gate into Dharug National Park. A fifteen minute walk up a gentle gradient leads to spectacular stone walling, culverts, quarries, buttresses, chiselled and blasted rock faces and hand hewn drains. Hangmans Cave is found after a beautiful curved wall, just above the buttresses. A few hundred metres further up a track leads into the campsite where the convicts lived while building these elaborate structures.
